Sewer Line Repair in Detroit

If you had the choice of getting a new car, or repairing a broken one you
had, which one would you choose? You probably thought of the right answer
was repairing, assuming it is cheaper. Even if the repair will take a
few days, that’s ok. You need the car and you don’t want to
spend the money on a new one.

But what if we told you that this new car is cheaper and better than the
one you want to repair? Not only that, but we can give it to you in a
matter of hours.

Unfortunately for you, we are not in the car business. But this example
is an illustration of the kind of work we do at Mr Rooter Detroit.

The traditional way to repair sewer lines involves three things:

Digging

Repairing or replacing

Restoring

The problem with this old approach is that it’s expensive, it takes
days or weeks to complete and it leaves you with another expensive restoration
project you didn’t have to pay for. Traditional plumbing companies
will tell you that excavating—destroying—your yard is a necessary
evil. But what they won’t tell you is that, along with your traditional
sewer repair bill, you’ll need to add the cost of restoration.

So now you’re looking at weeks of work over something that we could
have fixed for you in hours.

How Do We Fix Sewer Lines?

Our approach is simple. We give you a brand new sewer line with the least
amount of destruction, time and cost possible. Our goal is for your home
or business to be back to normal in record time.

Our trenchless sewer repair service really should be called sewer renewal
service, but just for the sake of argument, let’s stick with repairing.
What we do can be simplified in five steps:

Inspect. We begin with a camera inspection. This helps us see what kind of problems
your sewer pipe has. Depending on the problem is the approach we take
for the next step.

Clean. We prepare the pipe by either hydro-jetting it or even use a drill in case
there is something bigger blocking the pipe. In most cases all it takes
is a quick water pressure blast, but the goal is always to leave the pipe
open for the next step.

Renew. This is our signature move. We insert and place an inflatable liner into
the damaged sewer line. We fill this liner with a liquid epoxy which will
become the new sewer line. Once everything is in place, we inflate the
liner, let the epoxy coat the old pipe so it takes the shape of it, and
then we cure the epoxy so it hardens and becomes the new pipe.

Inspect again. We are almost done. We perform a second camera inspection to make sure
the pipe is completely sealed and where it needs to be.

Test. Now that we are sure that the new pipe is ready to use, we do a test so
you see how great it works now.

At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, we recommend yearly inspections and routine maintenance
as the best way to gauge the condition of sewer pipelines in the Detroit

property owner provides routine maintenance to their plumbing and sometimes
even when you do, you end up with a plumbing emergency due to an outside
environmental factor.

Mr. Rooter Detroit Sewer Repair

Symptoms of pipes that have been neglected, damaged, or run their course
are pooling water, odor, and slow draining. Leaking pipes and flooding
are obvious signs of an issue and should never be ignored. It’s
best to call for maintenance as soon as possible to avoid the situation
progressing into something worse.

In the past, sewer line repair involved digging trenches through the landscape
at your property to access the sewer line and then manually replace it.
Today, Mr. Rooter Plumbing proudly offers our clients trenchless repair
options. Trenchless repair methods allow you to skip the hassles associated
with traditional sewer repair, including costly labor and property remediation.
Trenchless methods also take less time to complete, making them ideal
for home and business owners alike who appreciate speedy service and getting
back to their routines as quickly as possible.

The Trenchless Sewer Repair Process In Detroit Homes

At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, we use pipe lining in the majority of trenchless
repairs. Pipe lining involves the application of an epoxy resin to renew
the inside of the existing pipeline. A felt liner soaked in resin is inserted
into the sewer line through an existing access point. The liner is pulled
through and inflated until it hardens to the inside of the pipes, creating
a new pipe within the old.

This method is popular because it can be completed in a day or two, eliminates
property damage from the repair process, and the resin is a superior piping
material. The new epoxy pipe lasts for fifty years or more, is environmentally-friendly,
and will never corrode. It even repels tree root invasion, which is a
common cause of sewer line damage and clogging.

If you are experiencing signs of damage or wear to the sewer line at your
property, it’s time to call Mr. Rooter Plumbing for a professional
inspection. Over time, pipes corrode and break down due to continued use
and environmental factors. Every property eventually needs service to
its sewer line.One of the ways we show our commitment to customer satisfaction
at Mr. Rooter Plumbing is by performing repairs for flat rate, fixed pricing.

When you choose Mr. Rooter Detroit, you will never be subjected to hidden
or overtime costs. We bring decades worth of plumbing repair experience

rates. Our technicians are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week
